Vignette Tips● About reading the program and drawing it accurately, reading comprehension. No

extra credit for designed solutions.

● The vignette on the exam should be similar to the practice exam.

● Column and Joist solutions are simpler than bearing wall and linel

● Draw the right elements on the right level

● Columns support beams > beams support joists > joists support decking

● Maximum span for beams = 40’-0”

● Maximum span for joists = 30’-0
